00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:40,600 HiPernick talks about karate, it's meaning, and some of the things he has learned. 7 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,200 In today's episode, I'm going to talk about Karate. 8 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:51,000 I haven't recorded episodes for almost a year, and since then, many things have occurred 9 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:58,400 in my life, and I'm now in college, I'm studying computer science, and now that 10 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:07,280 I have organized my time, a lot better, I'll be recording or I'll be striding 11 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:14,800 to record an episode, monthly, I have very interesting talkie topics to share with you 12 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:22,720 that I have learned in college, I will be talking about them in future episodes. 13 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:30,200 Okay, so today's topic is karate, I don't have like a predefined structure for when 14 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:38,920 I'm going to say, I'm mainly going to say, to talk about what karate means, the history 15 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:48,320 about karate, and some of the translations of karate, words, and I'll also talk about the 16 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:57,720 basis of karate, and some things that I have learned from my sensei, as I'll introduce 17 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:03,960 new concepts, I'll explain them, and yeah, so let's start. 18 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,400 What does karate mean? 19 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:14,360 There's a great analogy from Gishin from Akoshi, he's the father of modern karate, he was 20 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:25,800 born in Kinawa, in 1968, and he's one of the people that introduced karate to all 21 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:35,320 of the world through his exhibitions, another thing I want to say before moving on, is that 22 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:44,360 the words, some of the things I'm going to say, or I'm down in the show notes, so you 23 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:54,400 can understand more concepts about, and also see how the words up for Nellus in Japanese 24 00:02:54,400 --> 00:03:04,960 are reading, in his book, I just call karate the Kiyohan, Gishin from Akoshi, gave 25 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:11,880 his analogy of how he's a karate, a karate guy, someone who practices karate, that's 26 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:20,560 how he or she's called, okay, so he says, those he's like green bamboo stock, hollow, 27 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:29,160 car, inside, straight, and with nuts, that is self-ish, gentle, and motoric, okay, karate 28 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:38,160 or karate, literally translates the way of the empty hand, Kar means empty, as in Kar, okay, 29 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:49,000 the means hand, although he's white, so the way of the empty hand, empty hand, it's 30 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,840 because in karate you don't use any weapon, you just use your body and your hands, but 31 00:03:54,880 --> 00:04:04,600 also it has a more profound meaning as Gishin from Akoshi, said, karate is about being 32 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:17,600 empty and hollow from bad thoughts, from being selfish, it is karate is about striking 33 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:26,880 to be better, having karate is being gentle, and something that Gishin from Akoshi 34 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:35,040 is in a place like this, a lot is being humble, so given though you know a lot of things 35 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:45,920 about karate, you don't come saying to others, but you know, yeah, being arrogant, well, 36 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:53,600 something I forgot to mention, that I've been practicing karate since I was seven years old, 37 00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:02,000 but it's something now that I really, I am really interested in karate, it's something now that I 38 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:11,520 really understand what karate means, my parents brought me to karate classes because of the 39 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:20,320 values of karate, you know, discipline, yeah, as I said before, being gentle, being moderate, 40 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:28,400 being humble, also being empty of laziness, which at the beginning, well at the beginning when I was 41 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:35,760 starting practicing karate, I wasn't very happy to wake up early in the morning and to practice 42 00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:47,200 karate, sometimes I was, yeah, sometimes had laziness, it was sometimes was lazy, but I have learned 43 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:55,120 a lot of things and I have advanced through this way, I am now purple belt, I later talk about 44 00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:06,960 the hierarchy of the color of the belts, okay, well yeah, that's what karate means, 45 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:14,560 karate, it is also something you don't only practice in that, though you do use their physical 46 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:22,400 place where you train, but rather as an an as teaching for the cause you say, every place can be 47 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:31,120 at the wheel, so every place is good to practice karate, to be humble, to be gentle, not only 48 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:40,320 practicing karate physically, but practicing those values, those key values in karate, okay, 49 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:50,960 well, karate, there's a big order, some misconceptions about karate that I want to clarify, 50 00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:58,000 many people practice or they became practicing karate because they want to learn self-defense, 51 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:04,080 they may have been attacked before, they want to learn how to defend, but that's not maybe 52 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:12,880 purpose of karate, that's like a bonus, karate, I can bet that many of the reasons say sort of 53 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:19,760 Japan never used karate in our real life situation, like it's just from a caution, the other 54 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:27,760 graces and says of Japan, and that is something that reflects also in a race of teaching for 55 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:36,320 a caution, one of his training percepts that I'll layer put on the show notes, holding to them, 56 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:43,760 it is the percept says, there's no first attacking karate, it is really an teaching from a 57 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:52,400 koshistam, and that reflects in karate, there's something called kata, kata is one of the basis, 58 00:07:52,400 --> 00:08:01,120 three basis that I'll, let me talk about, and karate is a series of techniques that simulate or 59 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:09,600 symbolize real combat, and in every kata in the karate there's always the first movement, 60 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:18,720 he's a defense, there's no kata that is charged with attack, that also means that one of the best 61 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:27,360 fight is the one you avoid, they agree with that, think you should always be careful with using 62 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:34,880 karate, using like that, practical things about karate, the movements, attacks, the defenses, 63 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:44,000 both because you can well injure severe way of person, and may even kill the person, 64 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:54,720 and also well because, well yeah that's not the purpose of, during those attacks and defenses, 65 00:08:54,720 --> 00:09:01,440 things that karate is more about, having peace during self defense that's like bonus, 66 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:11,280 and also well it depends on the country you're leaving, but if you happen to, if it happens that you 67 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:19,120 fought with someone, even if it's a thief or someone who attacked you first, and you 68 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:29,920 injured that person, it's really, he's very bad, he's up at that very bad state, you could get 69 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:37,360 and travel with authorities because, well you knew karate, you know karate, a lot of 70 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:46,960 person didn't, so that's disadvantage, you could get into travel, the first thing, the 71 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:55,600 one of my, since I said, the best thing you can do is just, and also depending of the situation, 72 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:02,240 the best thing you can do is just inevitably take that person, if that's a word, yeah like, 73 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:11,520 let me, sorry, let me cherish, so I can confirm, and then yeah you, you just run, 74 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:21,600 oh well there's a translation, I'm not sure if that's the correct word, 75 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,560 whether it's like this qualified, or let me write some another thing, 76 00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:32,960 yeah like, no, that, that, that, that's the thing, that person, yeah, you disabled that person, 77 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:41,680 you just punch him or you, you make him, sorry, there's an airport for that, 78 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:50,720 you like, yeah, like you take out his, his, his air, and then you run, 79 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:59,360 um, okay, so moving on on the topic, something interesting about what karate, 80 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:09,520 is that it doesn't matter your age or your gender or anything, you can always practice karate 81 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:18,080 at every moment in your life, many of the sensations in Japan, the various sensations 82 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:27,200 upon their oral, because well karate is a way so you age practicing karate, and it doesn't 83 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:36,480 matter people, I've seen or people that is very karate, when they were young or not so young, 84 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:45,760 they were all, it doesn't matter because karate adapts or you adapt karate to train the training 85 00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:53,520 to yourself, and as you improve in karate, you also improve your physical condition, so that's 86 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:58,960 something great about karate, and that's another bonus you improve in your physical health, 87 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:10,800 okay, okay, so another thing about karate, well, yeah, karate has influence from China, 88 00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:21,120 karate developed, was developed in the UQ kingdom, it was a kingdom, in the UQ islands from 89 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:36,160 1429 to 1879, it was, yeah, and it has been developed, the modern karate by Kishim from Akashim, 90 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:48,160 and he introduced it to all of the world, well, let's talk about the main bases of karate, 91 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:57,280 karate has three main bases, there are Kata, that I mentioned before, Kion, and Kamete, 92 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:06,560 well, Kata, I already defined it, in karate, in Chutagani style, there are other styles, 93 00:13:06,560 --> 00:13:13,760 I'll let you talk about that, in Chutagani styles there are about 19 Kitas, if I'm not wrong, 94 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:21,360 of those I only know around half or a little bit more, 95 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:38,240 well, in Kata, yeah, as I mentioned earlier, it's like a symbolic fight, and it's also similar, 96 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:43,520 Kikihonkihon is also a series of movements, movements, but they are all in straight line, 97 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:52,400 and they are mainly used to practice your position, your form, your dashes dashes are the 98 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:59,520 positions of your legs, so there are different positions, some examples are synchetsuachik, 99 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:11,920 Kukutsuachik, Kivalashi, and Kionic is for improving those areas, those positions, techniques, 100 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:20,320 and it is also used when you're being evaluated by your sensei to continue 101 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:30,800 abancing through the belts, and last, or it is Kamete, Kamete is like it's combat, 102 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:40,880 I know that I said before that karate is not about, it's not focused mainly on self defense, 103 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:50,880 or like that combat part, but it is also important to be a skillful that even because it's 104 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:58,800 not the main focus of karate, but it's as I said before, it's a bonus, so it is important, 105 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:06,160 in Kamete, there are two categories, yeah, so when you're starting learning karate, 106 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:17,040 you just practice basic committee, basic combat, and you don't have like a physical contact, 107 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:26,960 but you don't, yeah, the best way of singing is with the difference with free combat, 108 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:32,480 so you can free combat your name implies, you're free to move and you're free to attack as you 109 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:40,240 go ahead and defend as you want, in basic combat you, there are predefined structures, 110 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:51,200 and there that's the committee you learn when you're beginning, in competences, in 111 00:15:51,200 --> 00:16:00,640 even in the Olympic games in Japan, that's when karate was first introduced to the Olympics, 112 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:10,080 into Olympic games, in Katekas or practitioners of karate, competed in the two categories of Katekas, 113 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:17,040 committee, because well as I said before, Khehon is more used to have all like you, so yeah, 114 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:30,480 those are the three bases of karate, before moving on, I want to say or mention the Dojo Kuhn, 115 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:39,040 Dojo Kuhn is the set of rules for when you're training, Dojo as I said before is the 116 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:47,680 place where you train, well I'll be training between Japanese and English, so the first, 117 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:55,920 they are five rules, so the first one is he does Jinkan Kukansen in the Dojo Kuton, that translates or 118 00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:02,480 yeah, that translates to a strike for completion of character or seek perfection of character 119 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:12,320 Hitatsu Makatonomi Shiyoma Murukoto, be faithful, protected way of truth, be punctual, 120 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:17,440 that's something very important, Hitatsu, Dojo Kuhn of Sationo Jashino Kuton, 121 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:24,480 that's like each person most, and they were fostering the spirit of airport, 122 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:32,080 Hitatsu Rayon Shiro Kuton, respect others, and finally Hitatsu Kekinaju in Mashimura Kuton, 123 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:39,120 which translates from, which translates to refrain from violent behavior. As you may have noticed, 124 00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:46,720 every, each of these rules starts with Hitatsu, Hitatsu work, that translates to first, 125 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:54,320 that means that every rules are at the same level, all of them are important, 126 00:17:55,280 --> 00:18:05,440 okay, and well, the Dojo Kuhn reflects the values of karate, reflects the values of karate, 127 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:14,160 what I, yeah, some of the things I mentioned before, refraining behavior, 128 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:25,360 striving to be better, having discipline, um, well, um, yes, I wanted to talk about the hierarchy 129 00:18:25,360 --> 00:18:33,760 of the belt, so the first belt is white belt, all of these belts have all of these 130 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:41,120 color of the belt's have, that colors have meaning, and it is not casualty that the first 131 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:48,880 belt or the first obvious, these setting Japanese is white, it's like the beginning being clean, 132 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:58,800 of everything, it's starting a new path, um, then every belt has its meaning, 133 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:07,920 then we have yellow belt, then we have orange belt, blue belt, green belt, purple belt, 134 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:16,960 then we have a brown belt and black belt, and those last ones are important, and when you get to 135 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:24,000 the black belt, you were saying, you're the master, yeah, like, you can be, you're like the master, 136 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:33,520 you can have some others, and the, and brown belt, it's, um, when you're in brown belt, you're 137 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:43,120 us in bite, and that's like, preparation from being the master of others, um, so when you get to the point 138 00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:50,960 that point, you must give a good example, you should also have trained others, because you 139 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:58,240 part of, uh, carry out these also helping others and teaching them, so, um, when you get to brown belt, 140 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:06,960 you must, uh, prepare to teach others and help others, um, I do remember if I mentioned it before 141 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:14,560 part, I am purple belt, and now I think that didn't, so yeah, purple belt, uh, what my belt 142 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:25,120 or obvious, means, uh, or emphasizes in is, uh, common control in yourself, and that's also something, 143 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:33,680 related to what I said for, um, karate's about search and peace, and having, uh, like, 144 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:41,120 out of control, yeah, I think that's a word over yourself, out of control, yeah, um, well, 145 00:20:41,120 --> 00:20:50,080 other words, karate, karate does the uniform, you use when practicing, uh, well, something 146 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:58,160 really important, uh, is that when you get to brown belt, there are three different 147 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:07,120 brown belts, and they are all, uh, they use, you, you, differentiate them with a term, you 148 00:21:07,120 --> 00:21:16,000 called dash, it, then, sorry, so there is, first, then, third, then of brown belt, and in black 149 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:24,800 belt, there are 10, 10, so well, it's a whole life, uh, I might say, Mason says, like, uh, 150 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:32,080 third, or four, done, and it's a whole life, it's, um, pat, there are many things to learn, 151 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:38,720 uh, something Mason says, yes, it's that, uh, black belt, he's just that beginning of the, 152 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:44,800 it's kind of that beginning, um, so yeah, there is a lot of work to learn. I think 153 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:54,160 only hopefully, or three, next year, to brown belt, and maybe, since now, four years, 154 00:21:54,160 --> 00:22:00,640 four years since now, I'll be black belt, yeah, so, oh my, I want to practice all my life, 155 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:09,440 karate, um, well, something that I just remember is that karate, one of the episodes, 156 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,640 of kishin funa koshizu, is that the beauty of karate, uh, comes from practicing it every 157 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:23,840 moment of your life, uh, that's where the beauty of karate comes from, uh, well, let's look 158 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:31,600 about styles, term, different styles, depending on the sensei, uh, the style that was developed 159 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:38,400 by kishin funa koshizu, shatterkana style, it is called, as that, because, uh, shatter was the 160 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:45,680 nickname of kishin funa koshizu, and kani is like a house, so, or do you, so people say, well, 161 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:53,200 let's go to, to shatterkana, to the house of shatter, and there are other styles, I don't know 162 00:22:53,200 --> 00:23:02,560 their name, but there are, they differ mainly on the katas, perform, um, mainly on that, and maybe 163 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:10,320 some of the techniques used for the katas, uh, another thing interesting about karate, 164 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:20,400 is that there is Okinawa karate and Japanese karate, um, they differ mainly on the dashes, 165 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:26,880 in the, if I'm not wrong, in Okinawa karate, the dashes are the positions of the legs, 166 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:35,040 her, uh, little, or more little, uh, because they focus more, like, being, uh, that's called, sorry, 167 00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:43,040 yeah, like, uh, practically, I think that's the word, you know, like being practical, 168 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:51,360 when performing the techniques, uh, something to, to, to, to mention, uh, yeah, to mention about karate, 169 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:59,760 that, uh, karate also focuses on being, um, like the beauty of performing the techniques. 170 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:06,960 So, there are many techniques or ways of moving, uh, your body that doesn't matter how you 171 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:16,800 perform there, because, um, they're not part of, um, the attack or the defense itself, but, um, 172 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:24,560 with Kalman, yeah, with, uh, having control over yourself, uh, from being, you know, 173 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:30,960 you can't perform there, they mean a beautiful way, so that's also beautiful about a katas, 174 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:38,720 and well, it's about, uh, someone's a katasin, you should have been a style, uh, there are, 175 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:44,960 yeah, as I said before, 19 katas, different years, three of them you learn when you 176 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,840 begin practicing karate, are they kakushuan, they kakunian, they kakushan then, 177 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:57,040 they kakun means Martin's first cause, and he's also my sensei before, said, uh, the last cause, 178 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:06,080 since he's from Japan, or world sensei's with the high that, with tender, uh, of black belt, 179 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:12,800 a practice, they kakushuan, it's like your first one, last cause, then there are five hand, 180 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:19,280 hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, and you may have noticed that at the end of the, 181 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:25,360 names of the katas, there, there, there is the word, there are the words, a shosh, 182 00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:32,160 hand, hand, and well, those are how, that's how you count him, Japan, in Japanese, sorry, 183 00:25:33,360 --> 00:25:38,480 so the first number is each, then you have knee, knee, knee, ankle, 184 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:47,760 local hishii has to cut you, um, so yeah, there's last hand, hand, hand, there are, 185 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:55,040 first, five hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, hand, hand means, uh, minding, peace, 186 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:05,280 and hands were derived from, uh, katakul, kankudai, kankudai is, uh, look at the sky, it's like 187 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:12,480 kini at this, yeah, look at the sky, that's how it translates, um, I think I'm not sure, 188 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:21,440 but yeah, those are short words for the large, the large meaning, look at the sky or 189 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:29,840 hand, just the word for a minding peace, but I think it derived from, from other names, but that's 190 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:36,160 the simplified version of saying them, uh, okay, so kankudai, it's look at the sky, I need to 191 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:44,080 call like that because of the first, last movement you perform, the first moment, I, uh, 192 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:50,400 posting it in the show not some videos of kankudai, kankudai, kai, and the hayans, and they keep you, 193 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:58,000 the kakus, so you can see, see them, and kankudai, you start with your hands, 194 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:08,160 in hands down, and they're from a triangle, and then you slowly move your hands upwards, until 195 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:18,000 you see the sky through the triangle, then you separate your hands, and then you continue, 196 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:25,920 you later see some of the videos, and there's another katakul bazaedai, bazaedai is 197 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:33,520 translates entering or penetrating the fortress, I just go like that because of that strong movement 198 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:42,400 performer, they're beginning of the katakul, and, well, kankudai and bazaedai, they have like 199 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:51,920 brothers, so there is kankusham bazaed show, they're like little brothers, I think, if I'm 200 00:27:51,920 --> 00:28:01,840 referring, you are in the black belt, I am in purple belt, and I learned kankudai in green belt, 201 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:10,160 and hey, I'm going, I am now learning bazaedai, take a shot, and something before moving on with that 202 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:23,200 take a shot, I said that kankudai, you arrive five hands, that what the reason for that is that 203 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:33,200 kankudai is really, it's difficult, there are kankudai consists of 65 techniques, 65 movements, 204 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:43,600 and if you don't control your breath and your energy, you'll end up without air and performing back, 205 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:54,320 back, back, wrong, so it is difficult, and it was separated into five hands, I don't remember who, 206 00:28:54,320 --> 00:29:03,920 what's in say, separated them, post-led in the show notes, he's separated into those five hands, 207 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:11,280 so people could learn him, they could learn them first, then they can't good eye, okay, so 208 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,880 take a shot, there's take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, 209 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:27,120 take a shot, take your shot, take a shot, take your shot, take a shot, take a shot, a shot, take a shot, 210 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:38,400 take a shot, take a shot, take a shot, make a shot, take a shot, take a shot, and take a shot, 211 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:44,320 and we're going to see what's happening with the video. 212 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:56,000 There are other ones who are in the tutorial, but there are two brothers, 213 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:06,480 I think I will learn it in Black Belt. 214 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:15,520 Well, something that Gishim Funakush recommended for instance is to learn a cut-out per year. 215 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:23,760 So you will learn it, perfection it, yeah, you will perfectionate it for a year. 216 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:32,240 That's a lot of time I learned Kankudayan and he and Gauran only in a year. 217 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:42,560 But yeah, I have a lot of things to improve in those cut-outs. 218 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,680 In fact, in all of the cut-outs, you can always improve a lot of things. 219 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:58,320 Well, what is important to perform a cut-out? Good way is a combination of factors. 220 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:07,920 So when you are performing your cut-out, first you should always have a good breathing. 221 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:15,440 You should go away, sir. Let me translate the word. Sorry. 222 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:26,000 Yeah, like press your belly, you really burn, yeah, but in a way that you can still breathe. 223 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:33,600 That is because you should, and that's not only in Kankudayan, also in Kankudai because if you 224 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:38,560 receive a punch in your shoot-up part, there are three parts. 225 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:49,600 Jalan, which is your head, shoot-up, which is your wrist, yeah, and again, which is your 226 00:31:50,240 --> 00:32:00,160 like your lower part, your belly bottom. You should always when practicing a press your belly bottom. 227 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:07,440 So, if you receive a punch, it won't take you out of your breath. Also, it is important to 228 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:17,440 practice moving your hips. When you attack with a punch at Suki, that's how it is called Suki. 229 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:24,400 That's the basic face, that basic punch you can. Or the basic cut-out you can do. 230 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:33,200 You should not only use the force of your arm, but also the force of your hips that 231 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:39,840 like the energy comes from your center. You can try it, for example, 232 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:52,000 your leaving your arms, your arms relaxed, your relaxed way. Moving your your hips, 233 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:58,480 view your right way. You will see, I end with a strong way, 234 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:09,440 a strong way. You will see how you can move your relaxed arms up to your head. 235 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:17,680 So, you can see that the force that you can use with your hips, that's something 236 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:24,640 very important in karate. Not only when attacking, but also when performing defense techniques. 237 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:34,880 When you're attacking, you should put your hips looking to your third north or well, so 238 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:44,720 yeah, north. But when you're defending, you are put it to the west or to the east, and that 239 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:52,640 helps first because of the movement, the mechanic of the movement. Not also because if someone 240 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:59,200 attacks you or with that, for example, with the Oceriet and I don't know the word. 241 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:14,000 With Leck Cake, yeah, when you move your hip store, east or west, sorry, 242 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:25,920 you have like protection, safe area, the guards you from Leck Cake, so any other cake, 243 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:34,400 something another thinking for turning karate, or in, and also yeah, cationing committee, 244 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:46,960 because well, the archetypes like assimilated combat, is the, are the, the, is the ability you must 245 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:53,760 have with your legs. So, especially for example, in Cancadae, there are a lot of movements 246 00:34:53,760 --> 00:35:03,280 you even have to jump, so you have to have a good stability. Yeah, that's another thing, 247 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:10,080 bring important. Something, well, now let's talk about things important in committee. 248 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:20,320 In committee, it is really important to, to, um, shout, yeah, to shout. So, when you perform, 249 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:31,680 when you, in, even in, in a basic committee or in pre, committee, combat, in free, combat, 250 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:39,120 or in basic combat, you have to shout, um, you, there are different types of ways of shouting. 251 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:46,960 Yeah, shouting is, sorry. Yeah, shouting, um, you say something like, 252 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:53,760 you shout that word. I don't, I think that word has a meaning, but that point is, like, 253 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:58,960 like, when you shout, you have, you concentrate all the different strength, and it is important 254 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:07,520 in committee, something you see if you don't shout, the judges can notify your, you're at point. 255 00:36:08,720 --> 00:36:15,520 Another thinking for that, he's the, being quick, like, like a cat, for example. 256 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:26,640 There's an analogy that might say, taught me, uh, if, um, if a rock falls, uh, to, to towards you, yeah, 257 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:37,440 normal people would move their, um, arms to the head, trying to protect it, but, well, the rock 258 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:45,680 will steal, um, break it, or yeah, keep them, and even kill them. Um, you would think that, 259 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:52,000 maybe a particular would use a technique, like, uh, I have, okay, a letter, let you see, 260 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:57,520 with an image, what, I have case, you decide events, uh, you would think that a 261 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:03,760 particular would use, like, kind of defense with the arm to protect it from the rock, but, 262 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:13,200 anyway, you will break your arm and die. So the best thing you can do is to, and the most, uh, 263 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:19,840 intelligent thing that you can do is just move to one side, that's, uh, easiest thing to do. 264 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:27,840 Um, people don't tend, I'm even critical, I don't tend to think on their legs, because, well, 265 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:37,920 we, we have, like, um, the arms more close to that head to that, brain, our brains, that, 266 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:45,120 done, our legs, sorry. So you don't think a lot about using your legs or moving with your legs, 267 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:51,440 and that's something you should do in committee, you should first think in the legs, 268 00:37:52,400 --> 00:38:01,360 in, uh, moving, uh, towards the opponent or, or backwards, um, and something, uh, 269 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:07,280 very interesting, there's a movie, sorry, oh, I don't, I just, I'm just checking the name. 270 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:17,520 Yeah, there's a movie with Tom Cruise called the last samurai, uh, it is from 2000, yeah 2003. 271 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:27,760 Um, yeah, there's a great scene. I'll try to find it in YouTube and post that in the show notes, 272 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:36,800 so you can see it. There's as anything when Tom Cruise, uh, he's, uh, practicing with a wooden, wooden sword, 273 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:46,480 and he's like losing the combat, losing the simulation. So there's a samurai that says, 274 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:56,080 says to him that he's, uh, having a lot of mind, uh, mind, uh, opponents, mind, short, 275 00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:03,680 mind, opponent, no mind, uh, samurai said. Um, so that's something important in committee, 276 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:12,080 you don't, there's, you, you enter like in a state where you, you don't think, yeah, something like that. 277 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:18,800 You're emptying, and it's like, uh, through instinct that you defame and you attack, 278 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:25,520 you don't think, you'll be opponent, you don't think, on your feasts, you don't think, on people, watching, 279 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:34,320 you, nothing, that it's, it's an interesting, it's paint of, of mind, uh, it's like relaxing, 280 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:41,040 uh, uh, a combat, it's like, uh, a dance, you must be relaxed. There are some times where, 281 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:51,680 you have to, uh, uh, uh, of searching, uh, precept from kissing for Nakoshi, the mentions, that, 282 00:39:52,240 --> 00:40:01,360 something, something similar to what I am saying. Um, yeah, so you, there are moments where you are, 283 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:10,160 like, a dance, some moments where you are relaxed, um, I'm searching it, sorry. 284 00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:20,240 Yeah, it says something like, um, the main point of committee is, uh, 285 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:30,720 interchange, like, uh, balancing between, um, relax, positions relaxed, uh, yeah, we like 286 00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:37,360 moments, uh, moments where you have to put all your resources, all your energy, that's something 287 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:45,440 very important. Well, uh, I, I, I, I say of these things about committee, but I have never, uh, 288 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:52,080 being, well, uh, free committee in a free combat. These moments will be my first, uh, 289 00:40:53,040 --> 00:41:00,880 competition with, uh, free combat, and I've been practicing, but, well, it's very different from 290 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:10,080 when you practice from when you, uh, uh, yeah, compete with a, uh, a person with, uh, 291 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:18,320 and now, where you can, uh, or where you can attack him and he may attack you and even, um, 292 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:27,840 injury hit you. So, yeah, uh, I think I hope I am prepared. And yeah, I think it's more of relaxing 293 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:36,800 yourself. I think everyone has feared by it, but if you demonstrate it, you lose. Um, yeah, I hope 294 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:47,360 I'll perform well. Um, what else can I say? Uh, something interesting that you can, um, 295 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:54,160 learn to differentiate some, uh, defense techniques and some attack techniques is that, uh, 296 00:41:54,160 --> 00:42:02,400 defense techniques tend to, uh, end with, uh, okay, war. So, there is, I, okay, that I mentioned it before. 297 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:10,320 So, to, okay, we should get you to, okay, um, uh, defense techniques tend to end with, uh, 298 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:17,520 pushy board.
